Texas bests honky tonks

[Mike Fangman]

I was partial to "The Cadillac" on north side, in Fort Worth, late 80's early 90's.
It was a happening beer joint.

London Dance Hall

I've been there several times too, when we'd go to the deer lease.

Western Club in Seven Points
Lakeview in Mustang Tx right south of Corsicana

I also went to Lee's Silver Fox in Terrell and the Texas Star in Greenville.

Kosciusko hall and Cestohowa hall back in the day had some wild nights. Those were some women, long and tall and could drink you under the table. Sure are some beautiful women up that way

Been to both places, I have seen things at Kosciusko Hall. And dont forget Pruski's.

Charley Pride played at K town hall last year.

What a out the Debonair Danceland?

I remember Debonair Danceland on Samuel in Dallas Texas

The Stampede outside of Big Spring

Yes, this article sucks. Only love for the whole Houston area was a LBGR....whatever the acronym is club? Boo.

Wasn't it open in the morning and catered to people that worked the night shift?

considering that it's texas monthly, i wouldn't set my sights too high. Lots of great honky tonks in texas, that no liberal millennial from that left-leaning rag would set foot in. Also, lmao at all the "non-smoking" establishments. In a "honky tonk"? Are you for real?

Btw....neon boots in houston is a gay bar. Not a joke, it's a legit lgbt dancehall.


Texas monthly is a joke.

lol. Texas Monthly represents the Beto O"Rourke people. Their magazine sucks

Got divorced in 2000. Spent many nights and dollars in either Cowboys Red River, Cowboys Arlington and Southern Junction. Met a LOT of beautiful women in those places, made a lot of friends.

I live right down the road from Southern Junction, been going there a little lately but it's mostly kids (18-25ish). Went out to Cowboys Red River last night for "ladies night"...…...what a joke. They let 18 y/o's in now so the place was nothing but kids.

Any place on the east side of town that has a good middle aged crowd (40 and up) that isn't a dump? Just looking for a place to have a couple of beers, listen to music and dance a little.

[Stolle]

Yep myself also! The fans in the ceiling were still turned by belts.

Those were really cool. Sad it burned down.

One of the liveliest fights I’ve ever been in happened in Rising Sun. It just wouldn’t end.

You should have been at the Longhorn Ballroom when the Sex Pistols got booked. That fight (riot) seemed to last forever.

Drank a couple of beers there at 7:30 in the morning.

I spent many Fri and Sat nights there as well. Drove through there about a month ago after dark and could not find the old dance hall. Now I know why...
How long ago did it burn down?

That's the one. I was too young, but if I need to see my dear ol Dad that was the parking lot....
